Jubail MMSC ledger adds July ring-main-unit relocation
IMWO original editorial diagram, based on USAspending award and complete transaction ledger
USAspending records 28 actions on Jubail's MMSC IOC facilities contract through 7 July 2026. A00017 adds USD 45,102.95 for ring-main-unit relocation, taking obligated and exercised value to USD 400,172,871.91. The all-options value is USD 503,225,000.91 and the current contract period ends on 8 March 2027.
The 28-row account reconciles to USD 400,172,871.91
The ledger records USD 29,029,950.25 for P00001 option exercise and USD 40,812,851.40 for P00002 fuel-system options. P00004 adds USD 29 million for the MMSC training facility. P00003 removes USD 15,602,632.04 from three line items and P00005 reduces the wharf design by USD 4,727,996.70 through value engineering. Other net changes total USD 2,125,449, including the July 2026 RMU relocation.
Options and utility changes explain different parts of the contract movement
A00001 extended time by 42 days for access delays with a zero-dollar action. Other zero-dollar instructions rerouted a fire main, fuel and communications lines, and a medium-voltage cable with an RMU tie-in. Alongside the priced account, these entries identify access and utility interfaces that the delivery programme needs to accommodate. Package drawings, isolation arrangements and test records are needed to connect those instructions to installed work.
Evidence conclusion
Tie the modification account to work-package completion
The July action identifies an electrical relocation interface. A contractor or engineer following the facilities programme should connect it to drawings, isolation arrangements, the certified programme and testing records. The USD 103,052,129 gap between all-options and exercised value measures potential unexercised value. Reported account outlays are USD 41.5 million; certified invoice payments and physical acceptance require separate records.
